Does anyone know of a program that can play video full-screen on one monitor of a dual monitor setup, while allowing you to keep working on the other?

Quicktime Pro lets you choose which monitor to go fullscreen on, but it blanks the other one. I found another program called PresentMovie which didn't blank the other monitor, but as soon as you click the mouse the movie stops. I have also briefly tried mplayer and vlc with no success, they wouldn't even let me choose to go fullscreen on the non-primary monitor.

My Mac is an MDD/867 running 10.2.3. I am running a Radeon 8500 Mac Edition with 2 non-apple flat panels, one DVI and one VGA.

Thanks for any help.
